Food Scraps to Garden Gold
Event description
Transform Your Food Scraps into Garden Gold!
Join us for an afternoon of garden tips, light refreshments and giveaways!
Together we’ll learn how to make the most from your food scraps, transforming those unwanted bits into gold to feed your veges and your puku!
We’ll explore:
Worm farms and the soil magic within - getting castings out, making worm tea, and resetting the worm farm so the little gobblers can go again.
Ways to use home compost in the garden - identifying finished compost; how much to use, which veges like more, or less.
Making your own seed raising mix with 3 ingredients, and take home containers you plant.
Seed swapping and seed library - a great way to get your garden growing for free!
Ways to keep those pesky critters out of your compost - register for a free rat trap from Predator Free Rotorua!
